Leica redesigns iconic model for summer – Leica M8

So if you fancy yourself as an aspiring Henri Cartier-Bresson, (and have got lots of spare cash!!) then check out the classic limited edition M8 camera from Leica. Mmmmm, me me me.

It is such a sexy looking camera, covered in smooth nappa cowhide and finished wth white lacquer. It also uses scratch resistant sapphire crystal glass in the screen making it durable too.  It’s 10.8 megapixel and has Leica’s trademark wide-angled lens, pretty retro looking.

Now for the good bit, it costs £5,990 but does come with a white leather carry case, which softens the blow- Not!

Vivienne Tam & HP digital clutch fashion laptop

       

 HP and Asian fashion designer Vivienne Tam have teamed up to make this gleaming red, peony covered HP mini note. Stylish and super portable it was debuted on the runways of New York Fashion Week at Bryan Park.

The “digital clutch” has a 10″ inch screen which is pretty impressive and features an extra special enter key that bears the Chineses symbol for double happiness – aarrr. It also comes with an embroidered storage sleeve which protects it when being carried.

This is the first time a high end designer and technology company have joined forces to produce a laptop like this. It does seem to be a good bit of fashion and technology fusion and in line with Tam’s personal mantra “Live well and be beautiful”.
